Default Nitrous Failure problem?

ok well got the new MSD digital window switch, hooked it up as it says....

and now, when i go to turn the nitrous switch on to turn everything on, the light on the switch doesnt work, but the msd window switch works, reads my RPM and turns on and off when i flip the nitrous switch...

Now the big problem, when i click the WOT switch, none of my noids click n e more or do n e thing! i have my on switch to spray at 3,200 soo i tried to rev it up at 3.2 and then click the WOT switch, and still nothing!

whats going on here?

i wired it up correctly,
WHITE=TACH
BLACK=GROUND
GRAY=LEFT IT ALONE
RED=WENT TO MY POWER
YELLOW-=Went to the + side of the FPSS

whats the problem?

What's the part number of the Window switch that you have ? That can help out. It also seems that the Yellow wire complete's a circut, by being the Ground for what ever you are trying to switch on. Thing is, they CAN NOT be directly hooked up to the Soleniods, as they wont have the capability to hold the ground beucause of the AMPRAGE draw. You MUST use a relay, and ground the Soleniods to the chassis.

If you want to keep it how you have it wired, I BELEIVE that you must hook the Grey wire to the FPSS, not the yellow.

But we must know what model switch you have.

Do you have the window switch set to a 4 cylinder mode? I've never messed with the new Digital switch, but I know on the old style window switches you have to put them in a 4 cylinder mode to work properly on an LS1 car.
